32. A regrettable error? Millions of people marched and spoke out
Edited on Mon May-12-08 02:28 PM by sfexpat2000
ahead of that "regrettable error". Including experts like Ritter and Blix. To be fair, Ritter and Blix were not preparing a presidential run that would be required to prove their willingness to obliterate innocent people.

I hope that Senator Clinton has a more appropriate term for the million Iraqi dead, the millions displaced and for the thousands of our own dead and disabled than "regrettable error". It seems so stingy.

But, by all means, let's move on.
